Method

Place butter in a large mixing bowl and beat until light and creamy. Add Chelsea Caster Sugar a little at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in potato, chocolate, cocoa powder and eggs one at a time. Stir in lemon juice.
Combine flour mixture and walnuts. Fold lightly through butter mixture alternatively with milk. Spoon mixture into a greased and lined 23cm round cake tin. Bake at 180'C (350'F/Gas 4) for 35 - 40 minutes, or until cooked in the centre when tested with a skewer. Stand in tin for 5 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack to cool.
To make icing, place chocolate and sour cream in a mixing bowl and beat until combined. Spread over cold cake.
